Hi,
We have XP running on all our home and corporate computers and
are happy with it. But it seems the clock is ticking and some
new software and hardware products don't support XP. I didn't
like Vista so retrograded my laptop to XP after a year. Every
new OS drops some things from its predecessor that causes
problems. One I am concerned about is NT4 File Manager (works
in XP, needs hack in Vista). Another is performance counters; I
wrote a program to display network activity (or any other
counters) at the top of the screen. The counters weren't
available in Vista Premium. Will I give these up? What else
have you had to give up?
Thanks,
Gary
